Features the historic "ELgin 6" telephone exchange assigned specifically to the Newtown Square/Delaware County geographic area before All-Number Calling was introduced in the early 1960s.


Construction:

Stamped from a thick, single layer of genuine split leather with an unlined textured back.

This key fob is in remarkable vintage shape for its age. The leather has a beautiful natural patina with clear, highly legible embossing.
